Jazz I have been on the verge of tears all day and you brought them flowing... that is beautiful and your wife will respond with pureness...not every man can put those emotions into words like you have..there is something to be said about that!! carry your head high my friend!!
One thing you can do is set the scene slightly by sending a "warning" message so that she's not totally unprepared when it lands. It's heart felt, but pretty heavy and it might help to warn her a little in advance so that she's not taken by surprise.
I think hand writting the final copy would mean alot more...then scan it if email is your only way of communication.

I think it has to be handwritten. (Make a copy or two for yourself to keep. It would not shock me if she throws it away at some point, but then wants it back. Plus, you might want to read it every few months, one way or another, to help avoid repeating history.) She can keep handwritten. I've got a couple of shoeboxes full of letters my wife (not at the time) and I wrote back in college. Of course, we had to use stone tablets back then! Handwritten is just way more personal. I like the idea of doing a little at a time, I also have handwriting that goes from bad to horrible in five minutes or so.
Amy, I think I've that anything more than a certain amount is a waste, so as long as they were full grown mosquitos you're fine! Well, maybe large, mutant, mosquitos!
